Introducing the Gear Patrol Special Edition Watch

The ideal watch is one you’ll never want to remove from your wrist. Better yet, it’s one you shouldn’t ever have to. It’s tough enough to take out in the field (wherever that is) and sharp enough for, let’s say, the office. The Hamilton Khaki Navy Scuba Auto is just that — it excels no matter what your daily life might hold. And this particular dive watch is a superb choice for both first-time mechanical watch buyers and those looking for a quality mechanical timepiece that is sub-$1k. It is at once a rugged tool watch and a handsome everyday timepiece, making it far more than just another sporty diver.

This is why Gear Patrol has teamed up with Hamilton for a very limited-edition version of the watch brand’s distinguished dive watch. This first-of-its-kind collaboration for Hamilton has produced a very limited run of these Gear Patrol Special Edition timepieces.

This Swiss-made watch features a robust 40mm stainless steel case with a uni-directional, ratcheting bezel. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal ensures a clear view of the time, while the black dial is well-suited for legibility in low light with its large luminous cardinal hour indices and printed 24-hour track.

Inside, the acclaimed three-hand H-10 Automatic movement beats at 21600 bph and boasts an 80-hour power reserve and quickset date function. A blaze-orange sweep-seconds hand adds a special flair of distinction to this unique timepiece.

The Benton is TJB’s first foray into writing tools, but like their sleek and tough-as-nails knives, this stainless steel pen has been engineered to perform unerring daily service and look sharp while doing so.
